[Closed] A talk long in the making.

[mtsilver_conquor]

Who: Eva and Tony
Where: dining car to start with.
When: Late Evening, Bassoon Day 1
What: Eva has a few things she wants to talk to Tony about.
Warnings: None, but will likely change.


[She could have done this right after his talk of the ballots, but she figured she'd wait a few hours. By then the hubbub should have died down.

But she's also willing to move this to the Quiet Car if needed. Embers of Fire, she likely would. She has a lot on her mind, and not all of it good.

Her word choices and manner of speaking, once she finds him and speaks, translates as respectfully formal yet tonally impart that no, this can't be put off.] Stark-san, you wouldn't happen to have an hour free by any chance? I... I would, if it's not too much of a bother, like a few words with you please.

[Whatever this will be about, Eva is serious. Like, to the poinnt that her typical pink shadow is no where to be seen

Not his pokeball's not on her, but it's one of the lower cargo pockets.]

[Eva's eyes and face are hard now, as if he's directly insulted her. he might as well have with that stupid and amoral remark. She'd love to punch him or find some way to punt him into her world and make it so he'd land in Orre or Holon or even Alola, and that was being kind. Or the wilds of Kanto, where teaching children how to deal with the reality of a pokemon world was more important than coddling them.

She doesn't though, and maybe, maybe down the line, she can learn about his world or even see it, even if she's pretty sure the values there would be so utterly alien and nonsensical by her view. Stupid even.

As it is, her voice is tight.]

No, I don't, but I plan to find out, or at least ask them if I get the chance. All of what you say is well and good, but I don't and will never agree with forcing your morality on other people, but then you're starting to seem like the person who'd do that, then turn around and wonder why people don't like you.

All I'm saying is the kids should get a choice in what they do, but I guess that's stupid and amoral and instead, apparently, we have to coddle them because they're kids.

[And Tony in turn wanted her to experience what he did last mission when he had to save Buttercup from being dropped off a mountain, cut and bleeding from the talons of one of those large birds. The bird might as well have had his heart in it's nasty grip.]

I don't care if or why people don't like me. The only moral standpoint I'd enforce on others is that they should protect children from harm. The rest of the stuff isn't as important.

It is if you're expecting anyone under eighteen to have the experience, discipline, and self-awareness to know how to judge a situation that an adult would know as dangerous. Hell, I'll even say anyone under twelve. But no, beyond that, you're being an ignorant fool if you believe otherwise.

Was there anything else you needed to discuss with me?
